About
where everyone matters
Meet Jennifer Wolff
A candidate for all the people
Upbringing
Jenn was born and raised in Waverly by a kindergarten teacher and a college professor. She graduated from Wartburg College and then received her masters from St. Catherine’s University. She worked at Taylor Physical Therapy Associations for almost 10 years and has been dedicated working on disability rights issues since 2010.
Experience
As an occupational therapist she coached individuals into better health. She helped build and facilitate support groups at the Waverly Health Center for folks who experienced a stroke, individuals living with Parkinson’s and their caregivers because the current healthcare system deals with symptoms but not with how to live with chronic, progressive conditions.
Beliefs
We all need different levels of support during our lifetime and Iowa has a care workforce shortage. From day care providers, to Home and Community Based workers. To mental health providers to healthcare professionals. We are even losing many of our teachers. Iowa can do better for its workers and its people.
ACTION
Jenn is passionate about empowering all. She has worked with #UpgradeMedicaid to bring awareness of the lack of Home and Community Based Services and workforce shortage that is impacting Iowans with disabilities, aging Iowans and their families. Iowans should be able to live where they chose.
